Venting can fan the flames of anger by encouraging rumination, Stewart explains. That’s where you’re rehashing how pissed off you are and why—chewing on frustrated or vengeful thoughts over and over.The truth is, sure—the odd primal scream or rage run probably isn’t gonna hurt ya. (And again, might feel so damn good in the moment.) But the goal is to accept, process, and channel your anger instead of ramping it up, Stewart says. On that…
As a registered dietitian, I often hear from people who feel like their metabolism is working against them.
